Stupid competition stupid.
Although really, stupid Cherry stupid.

I mentioned ages back that I won a competition.
Via a newspaper, for a bra and shorts set from a website than specialises in buxom ladies.
Now I think I read details pretty carefully, but a number of winners (and there were not that many of us to start with!) misread things the same way I did - the prizes were only allocated from a small band of the sizes available.

No doubt getting rid of their lowest selling sizes, now I think of it.

First shock was not being able to get the shorts size I wanted.
But I figured I could slim into those - I'm a big fan of incentive clothing.
Then it turned out I couldn't get the right band size on my bra. Ditto the above.
BUT, I could only get a smaller band size with a larger cup size.
No way that's gonna happen - if my boobs shrink it's because everything is shrinking.
I'm not going to become a 36D without surgery.

And I can't even sell them on eBay because the buggers insist you have to use/ accept PayPal in order to sell. Which I can't use, not being allowed credit or debit cards.

And for me, the thing that tipped this from being a rankle into an irritation was that I was waiting for my lovely prize before taking another NSFW shot to highlight my ongoing weight loss. Now I have to wait until I have enough money to justify buying new underwear. Okay, I don't have to, but I was really excited about lovely, exciting, slightly too small incentive underwear.

Wish I'd never entered the competition, grumble grumble. What an old git I am

What a pisser. That happened to me one time with one of those "buy 2 get 1 free (by mail)" bra sales. The size I got by mail wasn't remotely close to my size and came with a letter basically saying "Screw you". I gave it away and won't fall for that shit again.
